Hamilton College has sat at the corner of Pickens and Pendleton streets since 1943 but has received few improvements since.

The 69-year-old building, which houses the anthropology department, is one of USC's largest deferred maintenance projects, estimated to cost the university $15 million to repair.

Anthropology Undergraduate Coordinator Claudia Carriere has either been a student or has worked at Hamilton College since 1996, and she said the building has "too many issues" including mold, lead paint and asbestos.

The electrical system also needs improvement because the current system can't handle extra electricity or the fuses will blow, Carriere said. In addition, the water in Hamilton is unsafe to drink due to contamination, so those who use the building must drink from a stand-alone water cooler.
